Few persons realize how thoroughly they are controlled by prejudice even to their own disadvantage. For many years the treatment of rheumatism. neuralgia, sciatica and head ache has been by some outward application. and. therefore, without stopping to think that the origin of these troubles must, from necessity, be internal, the weary sufferer continues to rub, rub and find no relief Athlophoros is taken internally, and as a proof that this is the correct principle. it cures surely and quickly. The statement of those who have been cured ought to convince the incredulous.

UNITED CHURCH CHAPEL.


 Rev. T. T. Munger, D. D., pastor of the United church in this city, will deliver a lee ture in the United church chapel next week Thursday evening, April 21; subject, "From Greylock to Tacoma;" admission 25 cents. The lecture is given for the benefit of Shiu- kichi Shigemi, the young Japanese student who came to this city about two years ago from his home in Japan and in whose behalf so many of our citizens have interested them selves. It will be remembered that about 8 year ago two young ladies connected with the Center and United churches in this city gave a concert in the Atheneum for young Shige- mi's benefit and that it proved quite a fnan- cial success. Dr. Munger's distinguished reputation as a thinker, writer and speaker ought to insure large audience in the re- gently enlarged chapel of the United church and aid aterially in the education of a worthy and needy Christian Japanese.

The history of the efforts to treat catarrh during the past few years obliges us to admit that only one remedy has completely met these conditions, and that is Ely's Cream Balm.
